No need to worry, I think it takes a second for Junya to go through the messages as 0g is all the time active with other events too.
40 tickets sold to this show, so 10 left.

Re: Hospital/NWN Fest in Osaka / Machine Parts in Tokyo

Any idea how to get around Osaka after midnight? The metro runs from 5am until midnight. I am staying closer to the NWN/Hospital fest location so it is not exactly a walking distance. Taxi perhaps? Or bicycle. But all the shows in Japan end well before the last train so that shouldn't be a problem....

Re: Noise with Drums

I think Merzbow's kibako 2012 is one of the best Merzbow releases ever, lots of percussion and drums, sometimes sounding like taiko, sometimes just sounding like throwing a bunch of 2x4's down a staircase, and I love both. Also all th other sounds in it too feel visceral, like flesh, bone and sinew ...

Re: OBOO / WEICHES LOCH - Metalo Ritmo Frakaso 12" split

I am trying to figure out a some sort of arrangement with a recordshop if they could sell and mail records to the outside world slightly more conveniently than us.

Re: Travelling overseas for a noise show? Who's dunnit?

Also especially Environment 0g in Osaka for noise, experimental and electronic music. Really great venue with a huge sound system and frequent noise shows.

Re: Travelling overseas for a noise show? Who's dunnit?

For anyone who doesn't care where they'll stay as long as it is cheap and there's a roof, there are cheap (and I think good) hostels in Nishinari where you can stay for less than 5 euros a night. Near Dobutsuenmae station at least two or three, but haven't had to stay in one for a long time so don't...

This one is mine. Not so much noise, but not music either I guess. Maybe noise or music for those who are tired of noise or music or both, I don't know.

Re: Time signatures in noise

yeah, exactly! To clarify I was thinking of something more power eletroney perhaps with some steady beat or other machine induced pulse, abstract sound is just abstract sound.

Re: Time signatures in noise

as the old saying goes; "all music is in 4/4 if you stop counting like a nerd!", hah. I'd guess it mostly comes down to the gear and machines people use, if you don't change the beat, that usually is probably 4/4. Some modular stuff usually goes to 5/4 or 7/4. Personally I can't think why ...

Metal percussion stuff! Kinzoku Taiko usually playes as duo with Sandersonia Muh on violin, which makes an amazing GY!BE-like ambiance, but he also collaborates with other kinds of people and plays solo things too. I don't know why I can't seem to fish out any newer clips but am too tired right now ...

Kazue Asano uses self-made instruments to create sometimes noisy, industrial ambient soundscapes. I always enjoy seeing other people use self-made "junk" too, and in that sense I think her approach is quite close to mine; take something ordinary and make something very unordinary out of i...
